I recall spending a fair amount of time playing on building sites. A half built street was one hell of an adventure playground; with floorless rooms to explore, piles of bricks and sand to climb on, jump off and over, dumper trucks and diggers play in/on. There was never any "don't play on that building site" from our parents. It was just as acceptable as playing on the swings or in the back field... when did they start fencing them off?
when kids started dying in holes on them.

I had a lucky escape as a kid jumping over a open hole and falling in backwards. a few inches either way and i would have impaled myself on rebar . every time I walk past the shopping centre in my home town i look at one column and shudder at the thought.
